Damn brilliant idea

Of course this wouldn't work without the dedication of the hardworking volunteers of the Indiana Deer Literacy Project. Keep up the good work, IDLP!

I wrote this when this picture was posted yesterday so I'll write it again here.

In parts of Colorado they will intentionally fence a long strip next to the road and then have an opening in the fence with lights by it for deer to cross. The deer are going to cross the road, they just prefer for them to cross in a lighted and signed area.

Being from a town very near Crown Point, I can assure that this is exactly the sort of thing that people there say.

throweraccount · 11 months

What does it matter that he cross posted it or he reposted... obviously people liked the post and/or have never seen the post, that's why it got to front page AGAIN... the upvotes got it there...

seen it before?

downvote it,

never seen it before? like it?

upvote it

If you think this is idiotic travel 30+ miles in any direction outside of Crown Point, the sheer ignorance of some Indiana folk frightens me... I hate my state :(

i ran over my first animal last night. And my second. and my third.

Three raccoons came running outta nowhere and i hit all three, looked in my rearview and saw them bouncing along the pavement.

Thank the lord no damage was done to my car.

OK - So turns out the man Reddit and the rest of the internet is having fun belittling for being a moron... is a 9 year old kid.

I found him listed in the local Little League rosters.

You know, I have seen this exact same message before in different papers from different towns. You have pretty much been trolled, but on paper.

Gr8dane39 · 11 months

Maybe if they just cut the sign down the deer will stop crossing there... Or maybe make an overpass... Govt funds are available for this project

There never were any deer crossing signs on 231 in Crown Point to begin with, so I don't know what he wants moved.

WinstonsTasteGood · 11 months

I usually tolerate reposts, but this was reposted yesterday, before you reposted it today. May I recommend you step up your creativity or just stop posting? Because you're just a Karma parasite at the moment.

norhor · 11 months

What you want to do is to move it to a place where there is easy for drivers to get a nice overview.

Obviously you can't move it to another road, unless you have a lot of money for fences

mushpuppy · 11 months

My favorite 3 Stooges joke:

Does the deer have a little doe? Yeah--two bucks!

Samalaykum · 11 months

But what will the deer think if the sign is moved? "I'm not crossing down there, it's too much out of the way. Keep the sign where it is!"

soldierofwellthearmy · 11 months

..or you could just go all Norway on the thing.. fence in the sides of the road, and build a bridge for the deer crossing. Works too.

Instead of moving the sign, lets just tell the deer not to run out in front of cars. its that easy.

If I see even a single deer trying to cross that stretch of highway on my way down to West Lafayette this weekend I am going to be pissed. Thankfully it is Indiana so I can just get out of the car, grab the mandatory loaded rifle in the back seat, and shoot the thing.
